THE FRILL IS GONE: The Vagabond has been circumcised

Just a month ago I wrote a post asking CCP to be careful with the new Minnie designs. Generally speaking they look good, especially the Rapier/Sabre/Munnin black line-up and the Rupture/Broadsword line-up. The Hurricane is blurry for some reason and looks wiped clean. But the greatest worry is what happened to the FRILL on the neck of the Vaga?

They circumcised it. In case you forget, it used to look like this:

Now you remember. As several people have pointed out, the FRILL was pretty damn silly. And it is. No doubt. But it is EXTREMELY silly and important all at the same time. I can't explain that if you don't get it, if you don't care, or otherwise have your head up your ass.

Why is it gone? What did it do to anyone? Now the Vaga and the Stabber Fleet Issue look almost exactly alike, except for the color. I thought we were trying to distinguish ships and T2 variants.

Bring it back now. Make up some excuse about code or liquor or something that sounds half-way believable and bring back the FRILL. Seriously.

Just pop it right back on there and all will be forgiven. Heck, we all make mistakes from time to time.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE This Saturday, May 23rd, A Band Apart will be hosting their fifth Frigate Free For All (FFA) in Ouelletta, Verge Vendor, from 16:00-20:00 Eve time. 4,000 Frigates will be available for FREE to all participants in the Federal Navy Academy station at Planet V Moon V. “The free Frigates will be fit so that anyone, no matter their skill level or experience, can fly one and enjoy a fun environment of friendly combat,” said Rixx Javix, Executor of A Band Apart alliance and host of the event, “this is still Eve of course, but this is as safe of an environment as we can provide.” The last FFA saw 2,000 players take to space and resulted in over 45,000 explosions over the entire afternoon, “The red dot on the New Eden map was huge!”, Javix said. During the course of the event on Saturday special events will be announced in local, giving pilots a chance to score valuable kills and loot - all provided by pilots in ABA. “We have some special ships our pilots are planning on b…

On Saturday between the hours of 16:00 and 20:00 thousands of ships will be exploded in Ouelletta during the ABA Frigate Free for All. But why should you come to the event? This is your chance! Within the context of Eve the tables are often skewed against you. You know exactly what I am talking about. You're young, you like to focus on mining, industry, staying out of trouble...whatever it is you enjoy doing in Eve. This is your chance to let your hair down and have some pew pew fun. All with a minimum of risk. And while I'd be the last person to tell you it is going to be perfectly safe, within the normal context of Eve, the FFA is at least balanced in your favor. It is as close as you can get to a fair shake in this game. For a few hours you'll be on the field with other players in the same kind of ships, with the same kind of skills, doing the same kind of things. Nothing is "fair" in this universe, but this is as close as it can get for a brief moment in time. A…

On Saturday May 23rd, A Band Apart in association with Streamfleet, will be holding a FFA: Frigate Free For All in Ouelletta. Open to all players young and old, the FFA will feature 4,000 FREE Frigates to be handed out to participants during the four hours of the event, as well as very special event "events" to be announced in the coming weeks. Not to mention prizes!

"The FFA was terrific, This was the best time I ever had in eve." - Saki

These events are huge, you can see the results from our last one in that image above. But it is also the perfect place for any player, no matter what you do in-game or your experience level, to get a taste for PvP in as safe and friendly an environment that you can find in New Eden. The ships are FREE. All the fights will be between Frigates and we'll even have some places for you to get on bigger ship killmails along the way.

More details will be announced as we get closer to the date, but be sure to mark your calendars now …

"This was the best event I have ever participated in after 15 years of playing the game. Thank you Rixx and A Band Apart for all your hard work! o7" - Solidus Zero via Twitter Saturday hundreds and hundreds of Capsuleers grabbed free Frigates and headed into space to find combat, duels, insane battles at the Sun, and do it all over again for four straight hours during our FFA in Ouelletta. Nearly 6,000 ships exploded in glorious balls of fire during the event. All in all A Band Apart handed out over 3,200 fully fit Frigates. You can watch the entire thing over on Streamfleet thanks to Corvus Onzo and Streamfleet, ISD Thalack, CCP Convict, CCP Aurora, and everyone else who helped make the event such a massive success.

This was simply the best FFA of the six I've created and hosted in Eve so far. You never know what might happen, as I kept telling everyone "this is Eve" so anything is possible. But aside from Snuff hot-dropping a Moros, and some Russians causing som…

Our Wednesday fleet this week was yet another Crow based roam down into Pure Blind. Lufax would be FC'ing as usual. But this week had a little extra spice because I had been contacted by Richie Shoemaker (of EON Magazine fame who I've known for over a decade now) who wanted to tag along on our next Null Roam. Perfect. So I decided to make things more interesting and pick up some new Needlejack Filaments.

I was going to do this on Tuesday. But sadly Tuesday was mostly spent without power as our electrical junction box was getting a much need upgrade here at the Pirate Lord Mansion. So Wednesday morning I had to log into my Jita alt and quickly grab some filaments and then safely fly them down thru a War Dec. I admit I was in a hurry. But how complicated could it be? There are only two kinds of Needlejacks - Noise and Signal. Each of which come in 3 different flavors depending on the size of your fleet. And WHOA are they expensive!! So I picked the 3 cheapest ones I could find …
